RESAAS is pleased to announce that it has achieved a Silver ISV/Software Competency in Microsoft’s Partner Network. To earn a Microsoft Silver Competency, partners must complete a set of tests to prove their level of technology expertise, submit customer references and employ a required number of Microsoft Certified Professionals who are skilled on current technology relevant for the competency.

“This Silver Competency showcases our expertise in today’s technology market and demonstrates our knowledge of Microsoft and their products,” said Tom Rossiter, VP of Engineering at RESAAS.

“By achieving a Silver Competency partners have proven themselves as specialized technology experts with the skills needed to best serve customers,” said Jon Roskill, Corporate VP of Worldwide Partner Group at Microsoft Corp. “The Silver Competency in the Microsoft Partner Network is designed to help customers identify services and solution providers that have demonstrated proof of their capability to deliver quality outcomes and customer satisfaction.”

The Microsoft Silver Competency defines partners’ success as technology market leaders within a specific technology competency, with each competency having a unique set of requirements and benefits formulated to accurately represent the specific skills and services that partners bring to the industry. Requirements for the Silver Competency are comparable to the formerly recognized Microsoft Certified Partner criteria. All 29 Microsoft technology competencies differentiate a partner’s specific technology capabilities, helping customers find qualified solution providers with expertise in discrete areas quickly and easily.
